Akufo-Addo ignores AfCFTA, chooses Agyapa, PDS, E-LEVY & Galamsey

The Meridian Group in Malawi produces Fertiliser and plans to open 6 more Fertiliser Plants in Africa because of AfCFTA…

Nitrogen, Potash & Urea are the main ingredients of chemical Fertilizer production…

The petrochemical industry which Ghana has is key to Fertilizer production…

President Akufo-Addo has been blaming COVID-19 and the recent Russia-Ukraine War for all his failures predating these events…

Fertile Lands in Greater Accra are being turned into unplanned concrete jungles…

Very Fertile Lands across the country are being destroyed by Galamseyers…

Grass and Bush of no economic value greet you everywhere as you move out of Accra in any direction;

Green Houses and Plantations on these Fertile Lands would make Ghana food self-sufficient, create employment and bring revenue if Ghana were to take advantage of AfCFTA, which has its Headquarter in Accra, Ghana…

AfCFTA gives Ghana immediate access to a market of 1.6billion people in 52 African countries…

Instead Akufo-Addo, who is currently the Chairman of ECOWAS will not even pilot huge potential of AfCFTA, in the West African sub-region…

Akufo-Addo chose to close Ghana’s land borders well before COVID-19, because of elections ahead of a Voters Registration Exercise claiming threats of terrorism not COVID-19 which by then had not struck…

Akufo Addo has opened Ghana’s land borders now that the National Security has issued a warning of imminent Terror Attacks…

The Land borders remained closed during the COVID-19 crisis while the Kotoka International Airport was opened, to act as the only entry point into Ghana.

The opening of the Kotoka International Airport was timed to coincide with the sole sourced Frontier Healthcare Sevices COVID-19 Testing Centre at the Kotoka International Airport; in time to act as a funnel to siphon extorted money from international travellers…

After intense pressure on Akufo-Addo to stop the $150 per passenger fee collected by the Frontier Healthcare Service, Akufo-Addo has seen no further need to keep the land borders closed despite a claim by his National Security of a real threat of terrorism…

Instead of constructing a Fertiliser Plant in the name of his 1-district 1-factory, President Akufo-Addo has rather invested taxpayers money into Alcohol production among others…

Instead of taking advantage of the AfCFTA to build a Trade Fair Complex with a world class Convention Centre, Akufo-Addo is building a Cathedral designed by an LGBTQI advocate with the hope of commercialising Christianity to save the collapsed economy of Ghana…

For five (5) years the Tradefair Redevelopment Project has been put on hold by the Akufo-Addo government; despite a wholly Ghanaian owned company winning a competitive international tender to redevelop the Trade Fair Centre at La…

The international competitive tender for the Tradefair Redevelopment Project was supervised by PriceWaterHouseCoopers acting as Advisors of the Ghana Government and won by the REROY GROUP in 2016…

In 2022, after preventing the Reroy Group from beginning the Trade Fair Redevelopment Project, Akufo-Addo has sole sourced a Singaporean Company, STELLAR HOLDING, to replace the Ghanaian company and has signed an agreement with the foreign company in Dubai to that effect…

Ironically, Akufo-Addo’s own private law firm, Akufo-Addo, Prempeh & Co has written several letters to the Akufo-Addo Government warning of Potential Judgement Debt due to its handling of the Tradefair Redevelopment Project.

The recklessness of the Akufo-Addo government’s mishandling of Ghana’s key assets, has led to the current tragedy confronting Ghana, with Ghanaians literally having to pay the price…

The attempt to use a Family and Friends Special Purpose Vehicle called PDS to steal the Electricity Company of Ghana, rather than investing it the Power sector has led to the return of Dumsor and Ghanaians being asked to pay 148% more for electricity…

The Akufo-Addo government’s clande takeover of the Galamsey business through the scandalous “Party Nu Hia Sika ” scheme involving several government and party officials has aided the destruction of what COCOBOD estimates to be over 82% of Ghana’s farmlands.

The complicity of the Ghana Armed Forces in Galamsey, is evidenced in video footage which shows the Military providing armed protection for Chinese Galamseyers so they can continue their Galamsey activities.

The Military complicity in Galamsey, after Akufo-Addo refused to prosecute the Chinese Galamsey Queen Aisha Huang, as explained by then Senior Minister, Yaw Osafo Maafo, was to enable the Akufo-Addo government get Sinohydro Chinese mining company to pay and mine in the Atiwa Forest Reserve.

Sadly, Galamsey has resulted in the destruction of Ghana’s forests, farmlands, rivers and water bodies…

The Ghana Water Company is now unable to produce and supply adequate potable water, due to the pollution of the water sources by Galamseyers…

Ghanaians are being asked to pay 335% more for water.

“GHANAIANS WON’T PAY FOR THE HIGH ELECTRICITY AND WATER BILLS AND E-LEVY”.

Akufo-Addo claimed to have given Ghanaians FREE WATER, FREE ELECTRICITY & FREE FOOD to help them survive the COVID-19 pandemic;

However, Akufo-Addo has left intact the COVID-19 LEVY, introduced the obnoxious E-LEVY on MoMo and all electronic transactions;

Akufo-Addo has also increased fuel prices and is attempting to increase astronomically utility tariffs at a time food prices have skyrocketed, there is food shortage, inflation gone through the roof and the Highly Debt Distressed Ghana is on the verge of bankruptcy.

As though that was not enough, AKUFO-ADDO IS BLAMING FOREIGNERS FOR THE GALAMSEY IN GHANA, when the reality is that, in his home Region, Galamsey has become the in-your-face business along the main highway, near Police Stations where Excavators now use as parking places…

President Akufo -Addo, Samuel Abu Jinapor, Dominic Nititul and George Mireku Duker are aware of the fabrication and sale of Galamsey equipment by local town folk is happening by the roadside at Anyinam in the Eastern Region…

Daily convoys of Excavators and other huge equipment on long vehicles keep moving unimpeded on the highway on from Accra to various Galamsey sites…

GHANA HAS LOST THE FIGHT AGAINST GALAMSEY.

Many Ghanaians wonder, if there was ever a plan by the Akufo-Addo government to win the so-called war against Galamsey or was it just another ruse like the COVID-19 cash cow?

Ghanaians are resolved to be Citizens and not Spectators, Ghanaians deserve answers from Akufo-Addo, Samuel Abu Jinapor, Dominic Nititul  and George Mireku Duker on the status of the Fight Against Galamsey.

The much dreaded Ghanaian Uprising can still be avoided…

…it is entirely up to Akufo-Addo to choose a direction as Ghana is at the crossroads.

God Save Our Homeland Ghana.
